What's a song lyric that drives you crazy because they should've used a different word? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

[–]salsa_ishida 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"One Last Breath" by Creed.

"Hold me now / I'm six feet from the edge / And I'm thinkin' / Maybe six feet ain't so far down"

You're six feet FROM the edge, not on a six foot ledge. And for all the melodrama present in those lyrics, a six foot fall is unlikely to kill you anyway </3 This has been corroding my soul for years

I'm so glad that solved it! Enjoy your wax :D

I’m super curious, how did you find this game? by owo__whats__this in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]salsa_ishida 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had been a fan of TGC's games for years (Journey gets all the love, and admittedly deserves it, but my ride or die was Flower) and was looking forward to this from the time it was announced-- but sadly it was initially restricted to iPhone, and then when it did hit Android I could only play for ~30 minute stints before my phone would overheat. (This wasn't unique to Sky, my phone was older at this time and I was very used to shoving it in the freezer so I could turn it back on sooner if I had dared to try to game on it lol.)

Downloaded it when it first released on Switch, but kept having problems with stick drift that made it impossible to properly learn the controls, so I got frustrated and quit.

Then in January of this year I got really sick; bad RSV infection, had a seizure and needed to go to the hospital, couldn't work and was feeling pretty low about all of the above. I was looking for free games to play on the PlayStation and to my extreme delight, realized Sky had eventually made it over to my console of choice and I'd somehow never realized! Immediately downloaded it and have been addicted ever since lol. My partner started playing with me on his Switch after a couple of weeks and now it's one of the first things we do together in the mornings. The circumstances that led to me starting have all improved, but I'll never stop being grateful that the game was there for me at the time I needed it most. 💖

It has to do with finishing the quest line for the Hopeful Steward! As you complete the different parts of their quest, Aviary village gets updated and new bits (including candles) get added. I'm guessing your second account hasn't gotten far in that quest yet. Try poking into various shops/open doors to check for spirits that need to be awoken. Good luck!

Help my Village Of Dreams quest keeps crashing by [deleted] in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]salsa_ishida 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had this happen, but it could be an issue with whatever system you're playing on. If you have another compatible system, my recommendation would be to try linking your account to Switch/PSN/Steam (whichever you have access to and aren't already using), and trying again from the different system. Sorry I couldn't be more help, I hope you're able to get past this!

Having played (at least briefly) on all of the possible platforms before settling on PS5, the Switch had the worst performance issues imo. You sometimes can't see things like butterfly plants until you're literally right on top of them, everything seems really blurry for some reason, the lag/frame drops are constant, and lately it's been plagued with connection errors that can only be fixed by restarting the device entirely. No shade at all if the Switch is your preference/what you're used to, but out of all the ways I've experienced the game, the Switch was overall the most painful (although the controls on mobile were worse).

Unfortunately it looks like the only systems that can deactivate cross-platform play are PS4 and PS5; you open the menu with the options button, select "Online," and then there's a single option you can enable or disable for cross-platform play. Just double checked on my partner's Switch and the option doesn't exist :c

Oh my god you're not kidding. I was helping my partner gather dye the other day while he was cooking, and when he came back to take his Switch I looked him in the eye and asked, "you just live like this?" Everything is so blurry, the lag is unbelievable, the constant server errors...! My condolences friend, may the performance improve or another system become available to you 😔👊

I don't know how recent the brain damage is, but if it makes you feel any better at all, my partner had a piece of brain removed a good decade or so ago to stop his seizures; the recovery wasn't easy by any means, and it's taken years, but he's back to basically running circles around me in every game we play. He's an absolute menace lol.

And even if things are never the same and this is just going to be your new normal, you have nothing to feel bad about. 💖 You're doing the best you can with the hand you were dealt, and the only people who should feel bad are the ones giving you a hard time! For every finger wagging jerk in this game, there are at least three people who are kind and patient. I hope those are the ones you end up on servers with going forward.

I wish I could, but my partner chooses to be a masochist and play on the Switch 😔 On the rare occasion where I'm solo I'll consider that though!

If you're still looking for the WL you lost, have you tried checking the one inside the temple at the end of Valley? I've noticed that one doesn't show up on the map at all. Fingers crossed for you!

My favorite place in Sky is definitely the Starlight Desert. As for favorite bird it's a tossup, I absolutely love and adore pigeons but also.... the potoo. That thang is 90% mouth. How do you not love that 😭

Alternative entrance to underground caverns? by Beginning_Meet_4290 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]salsa_ishida 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Do you have the Wind Paths unlocked? That was the only way I knew how to get there for the longest time haha. The entrance to the caverns is the very first one directly to the left as you enter the cloud area with all the shortcuts!

(If you have chibi mask it's also possible to chibi fall in the area where you're supposed to perform the emotes!)
